The federal minimum wage is still $7.25/hour.
Think about what eggs cost.
Think about what parking at a parking garage costs.

If I ever become a full time author and get to quit my day job, the FIRST thing I’m going to do is dye my hair whatever color I want! It’s 2025, what do you mean I can’t have purple streaks in my hair as a grown adult with adult money? I work in digital marketing 😭
